Poland: Nationalist Karol Nawrocki Narrowly Wins Presidential Election
June 2nd, 2025Via: ZeroHedge:
In Poland’s extraordinarily tight and closely-watched presidential run-off election, a staunch nationalist conservative on Sunday defeated a pro-EU liberal in an outcome that promises economic and geopolitical implications. With 100% of the precincts reporting, conservative historian Karol Nawrocki had 50.9% of the votes, compared to 49.1% for leftist Warsaw Mayor Rafal Trzaskowski, who prematurely declared victory on Sunday evening after the first exit polls showed him at 50.3%.

Good luck to Mr. Nawrocki. I hope he’s a genuine conservative and a genuine nationalist, unlike some presidents, who can best be described as elitist.
